Job Description

At Rocket Farm Restaurants, the core philosophy that defines our culture is “We serve the person who is serving the guest.” Our culture is not something we act out on the floor of the restaurant. It starts with how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen – with dignity, respect, and care. We believe there should be no difference in how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen and how we treat and serve our guests in the dining room. We hope you agree and will consider joining us!

The Optimist brings a menu of casual, wood-fired fare to Nashville’s Germantown neighborhood, transporting landlocked Tennesseans coast side to experience fresh, sustainably sourced seafood.

The Optimist is seeking an exacting and enthusiastic Executive Sous Chef to jump aboard!

The Executive Sous directly oversees the day-to-day operations of all areas of the kitchen including production/prep, private parties and special events, stewarding, purchasing and receiving. He/she is responsible for ensuring the culinary staff is able to create all menu items to the highest standards, as well as effectively and professionally running the kitchen in the absence of the Executive Chef. The ideal candidate will have the ability to work calmly under pressure and lead a cohesive team, while successfully managing a culinary budget and aggressively monitoring labor, scheduling and overtime to ensure maximum productivity and guest satisfaction. 5-years of progressive culinary experience preferred, two of which in a Sous Chef capacity. Apply today and become part of a dynamic, innovative, and heartfelt group of unique individuals!

Competitive salary: $65,000 – $80,000/yr. DOE + generous quarterly bonus program
